EPD: Tufted broadloom carpet with nylon 6 face fiber, 1.99 kg/m2, UNIBOND PLUS (Mohawk Industries)

Unibond Plus is an advanced high performance backing system designed to provide long term carpet durability while delivering sustainable benefits. The Unibond Plus backing system utilizes a high performance thermoset adhesive designed to deliver greater dimensional stability and long term performance by encapsulating the carpet back stitch, and securing the secondary backing to the substrate. Unibond Plus is ideal for high performance environments. As of 2022, all Durkan flooring products will be carbon neutral plus an additional 5%. Unibond Plus meets Durkan’s commitment to Beyond Carbon Neutral. This study covers all products and styles with tufted nylon face fiber on Unibond Plus backing, including standard tufted solution dyed yarns, precision-dye injection (PDI), and Definity/CYP. Due to a range of face weights offered with this product, an average face weight of 24 oz/yd2 (813 g/m2) was used, which is the average of the annual sales. Unless noted in the report, the average face weight is presented for the impacts.
